Those numbers are "targeted". Not a definite yet

True, but it would be safe to say it will be over 500.

I'll be jealous for sure

Good news being a Coyote not a Voodoo motor some of that hardware could trickle down into the FRPP catalog.

Curious - with known tech (and creating a production type car like a Mustang and at a Mustang price point), how much horsepower do you all think can be extracted from a 5.0 V8 using regular 93 pump gas and no superchargers or the like?

Livernois made NA 585 rwhp on 93 iirc.

So 12.5-1 compression, 91 octane tune, revised intake, 7800 rpm redline should get it done.

I am guessing they will only offer it in a manual?

It won’t have more Comp, revised cams and intake, yea I could see that but I hope it has a DCT too

500 and 1!

I don’t know where they will get the HP from without it. Cams add a few horses but there are compromises even with VVT.

There is not much room left.

GT350 heads, GT500 full exhaust would help too

I can see them doing that but the GT350 is 526hp. That’s a pretty well maxed(reliable) race engine.

That’s why I think compression is the only way to get a 12cubic inch smaller motor to make the same horse power. Cobra jet like intake and 8000 rpms is also a must.
